* 1.1FOrasmuch as man is made for Gods glory, and because whatsoever is given to man, is given him only for the service of God, therefore we are to think, that because we can love, we are to love God; and because we have power to know, we are to know God; and be∣cause we can understand, we are to understand what God is; because we can fear, we are to fear God; because we can honour, we are to ho∣nour
God; because we can worship, we are to worship God; because we can pray, we are to pray to God; be∣cause we can obey, we are to obey God; because we can trust, we are to trust in God; because we can hope, we are to hope in God: And what∣soever good thing else we can do, we have power to do it, that we might serve our Ceator in doing it.
O eternall God and most mercifull Father, Hallowed be thy name(t 1.2) for ever. As thy intent in creating me was to frame me for thy glory, so grant it may be my mind, and purpose, study, and whole endeavour to
seek thy glory, and to pub∣lish thy praise. For Lord, thy glory and praise wilt thou give to none(x 1.3) other but to thy self. Lord give us such measure of thy grace, That our lights may so, shine before men, that they seeing our good works(z 1.4) may glorifie thee our Father which art in heaven. O Lord, because we can love, let us love(a 1.5) no∣thing in comparison of thee, let us desire to know no∣thing but thee, and Christ Jesus thy Son crucified. Let us never fear them that can hurt the body, but rather fear thee that canst destroy both body(b 1.6) and soul toge∣ther. Let our honour be to reverence thee, our prayers to invocate thee, our obedi∣ence unto thee; our belief,
faith, hope and trust in thee, through Jesus Christ for e∣vermore, Amen.
The Saints Service.
